Meal updates from last week:
We really liked the teriyaki beef bowls as well as the chicken kebabs. I didn’t love the chicken burrito bowl, but I think that it was because I used chicken breasts and I found them very dry. If I made this recipe again I would use thighs instead. This weekend we stuck around home, I took my son for a dinner date on Friday, Saturday I made spicy rigatoni and Sunday we grilled chicken, smokies and had potato wedges and salad.
This week is busy with activities and work, Friday is the beginning of our spring break and we are all very excited for some down time. We will be eating at home Sunday-Thursday, I work late Thursday so it will be takeout for the kids.
- Smashed Banh Mi tacos from @cheftomwalton I made these a month ago and we LOVED them. Everyone agreed that they were even better tonight! You can access this recipe on his IG account.
- Air fryer tofu from @pinchofyum I will serve this with some steamed rice and broccoli. My daughter is not a fan of tofu, so when we eat it I made her eggs for dinner.
- Chicken gnocchi soup from @thewoodenskillet, with a blast of winter heading our way, so I am making some comforting soup for dinner.
- Takeout
Last week I did some Easter baking as I was getting the itch. I made some mini egg oatmeal chocolate chip cookies as well as a carrot banana bread with cream cheese icing (recipe on her IG feed). Here are a few other recipes I found this week: lemon poppyseed muffins, chocolate raspberry cheesecake, citrus cake, shrimp sushi cups, chicken and feta baked meatballs and sheet pan halloumi with avocado and citrus. There is not a grocery list this week as it is a short one, we will both be back after the Easter weekend.
Happy Easter,
Sara
